    Beer Battered Fish and Chips, and Lobster Garlic Noodles
    Audrey L.

    Fantastic experience! My partner and I went before going to a concert in Seattle and were there for an early dinner. The place was pretty empty, but not dead. There were various sports games on different tvs above the bar, and the whole place was a little dark, but overall, clean and modern. Our server was super nice and fun to talk to, and had great recommendations for beer and food. I don't drink but my partner really liked his beer, and there was no shortage of options to choose from. The fish and chips were crisp and light, not super greasy, and the lobster garlic noodles were maybe the best pasta I've ever had at a restaurant. I was genuinely so happy with the quality and amount of food for the price.

    Sat at the bar. Got served right away. Decided on the ahi tuna crunchy salad $23.99 and truffle cheeseburger with sub house salad. Bar staff pleasant and friendly. It was, however, chilly-felt the cold air on us which was not pleasant on a cold rainy day. It was also pretty dark inside. They need more light and warmth!

    We always have a great time at Yard House, especially with their super fun half yard-sized beers. Their menu has just about everything on it from burgers to poke salad, and it all tastes great. The wings are decent, but our favorite app is the brussel sprouts. It can get a little loud being a sports bar, but other than that I don't think it's possible to have a bad time here

    Great place to grab lunch or dinner. Or server, Shaya, was wonderful. The food is great. I got the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with onion rings. It had a huge chicken breast on the sandwich and was deliciously seasoned. The onion rings were crispy and not overly greasy. Would absolutely go back.

    There was a bit of a wait when we arrived, but with homecoming going on and the Mariners game playing on the TVs, it was completely understandable. Once we were seated, we were greeted by Nile, who was friendly, funny, and really knew the menu well enough to help answer any questions we had. We shared a few laughs with her throughout our visit, which made the experience even better. The atmosphere was cozy and surprisingly romantic, especially considering how many TVs were around. We were seated in a great spot, quiet enough to talk comfortably but close enough for me to catch glimpses of the game. We started with the firecracker shrimp, which came with a rice cake on the bottom, something I'd never tried before but really enjoyed. My wife went with the Shiitake garlic noodles, and I ordered the Nashville hot chicken. Both were delicious, though I would've liked mine a little spicier. It would have been nice if they offered different heat levels. Overall, we had a great time. The food was solid, the vibe was perfect, and Nile's great service really stood out. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town.

    Stopped by Yardhouse on 4th Ave in Seattle for my birthday, and it was such a great pick. We tried a couple local beers, which were really good. For food, my partner had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich with house fries, and I went for the Nashville hot chicken and sweet potato pancakes - they both were absolutely delicious. The pancakes had a hint of cinnamon, the Nashville hot chicken was juicy, and the honey hot sauce with pickles and ranch was great. The best part was when our bar server noticed it was my birthday when she checked for our IDs and surprised me with an Oreo brookie with vanilla icecream at the end of our meal. It came with a candle and happy birthday written on the plate. That definitely was a sweet touch and really made my day. This was my third time at Yardhouse, and it's consistently been a fun spot with great food and drinks. We didn't have a reservation and were able to sit at the bar quickly, which was super convenient. If you're celebrating something or just want a casual spot with friends or family, I'd definitely recommend checking it out.

    Poke Salad

    The atmosphere was wonderful! The entrées were good. Ordered simple chips and guac for an app. The chips were burnt and should've been sent back. Six people at the table and we didn't even finish. and, Josh, our server, was full of personality and perhaps overwhelmed, but after he took our order and delivered our drinks, we never saw him again. Until it was time to pay the bill. And myself and others in our party we're sad to have given him a 20% tip.

    Came here on an annual weekend trip for week 3 of the Seahawks game. Love how Seattle has so many great places to eat and drink. Both franchised, local mom and pop shops etc. my group stayed at a hotel nearby, and yelped some spots for lunch, not realizing that as many times as I've stayed downtown; never noticed the Yard House on 4th street. Great location and close to our hotel as well as Pike's place market. Upon entrance we were greeted and seated right away. Huge round signature bar like all the other Yard Houses I've been to. Great vibes and prompt service. We did a couple rounds of beers with our food. Everyone ordered something different and all of us were satisfied with the quality. I ordered their BBQ bacon cheeseburger with fries and it didn't disappoint. Wouldn't hesitate to come back here in the future!

    A fantastic restaurant downtown with a lively atmosphere and fantastic service! The food is always great and the drinks expertly crafted. The chicken tenders, sliders, and Cobb salad are my go to's here along with Old Fashioned's.

    Its been years since I worked dt & visited the Yard House! Coming in during a football Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend, the mood was festive & spirited, to say the least. However just like I remember - busy vibe, make a reservation (or if you walk in, you may need to wait awhile but it goes quickly!) We sat in the bar area and even though we were in an intimate setting, watching the game while catching up was an ease. We came just for drinks, which were the sangria and the old 43 - both drinks, we couldn't complain. Our server was attentive and checked on us often despite the busy vibe of the place, which was surprising yet well received:)

    Cobb Salad with Blackened Chicken.
    Will B.

    The restaurant offers a wide range of dishes, drawing inspiration from American cuisine with fusion elements. This is my second time visiting The Yard House 1501 4th Ave, Seattle,Wa 98101. I find this location to be lively and welcoming. It has a nice vibe with friendly staff. To start off with apps, we ordered the Poke Nachos, didn't know that was a thing, I have to say that they were amazing. Comes with marinated raw ahi, crispy wontons, avocado, serranos, white truffle sauce, sweet soy ginger sauce, sriracha aïoli, cilantro, green onions, nori, and sesame seeds. The small plates brought to the table had what appeared to be pieces of avocado on them, I asked the gentleman who brought out the food if he could replace them. He chose to try sort through them it find a clean one. All three had stuff on them. I had to inform him that they are all dirty and to please replace them. I ordered the Cobb Salad, our server asked if I'd like a protein, of my two options of chicken, I chose the Blackened chicken. I recommend that you don't, the piece I was served was of ample size, yay. The down side was that it was inedible, one bit of and I knew I couldn't eat it. It tasted burnt, was dry and clearly was prepared in advance. I informed Jesse how bad it was and he made all the efforts to rectify the issue, he removed it from the bill. The rest of the meal and service was fine, I found that the section we were seated to be very dark, loud and slightly cramped. The folks leaving their booth were right upon me, I was bumped, grazed as they were passing to exit. If the place was packed I could understand. Overall, I had a good time at Yard House, its location is prime for a sit down meal or drink. Perfect for folks doing the tourist attractions. It's a couple of minutes walk to Pike Place Market.

    Very loud and extremely packed. The atmosphere was one of controlled chaos. Food was okay, service was perfunctory and brusque bordering on rude. They have an impressive beer collection and decent appetizers. Pretty average dining experience.

    Do they have the game audio on for Seahawks games?

    Yes, but the crowd makes it unintelligible

    Is this 21+ only?

    No. They have a kids menu on their website

    Is dog allowed here?

    Doubtful, as I've never seen one in here. This is a higher end place that gets VERY crowded after work. You can call and ask... Even if they did allow though, it would be unwise to take them here unless you like risking your dog's well being.

I'm not a scallop expert but this one missed the mark - the flavors were off with the sauce (tasted earthy). Presentation and color looked good, but this didn't taste good. Also came here breakfast several times. I don't have pictures, but each time the breakfast was amazing!

Every custom flight is tailored to your specific taste and price point which I love.

The service here is extremely friendly. I was speaking with Hannah about what I wanted in my flight and shared my wish list. Based on that, she chose 4 esoteric bottles that each had their own characteristics that would be interesting to compare against one another. My flight consisted of the Pappy Van Winkle 23 years, Colonel EH Taylor Distiller's Council, Very Olde St. Nick Superfreak, and Wild Turkey Austin Nichols 16 years. It was super nice trying all of these rare bottles that I wouldn't even be able to find, and they were all interesting and delicious! The food here is also fantastic. We came during happy hour since the food is a lot cheaper. My favorite things were the Dry Aged Steak Frites and the Crispy Pork Belly. The steak was cooked perfectly and extremely tender with a great beefy flavor. I love a good french fry and these were fresh and crispy. The pork belly was tender and fatty but the fat was nicely rendered so it wasn't chewy.

We booked a table in advance to catch an early bite, but the Happy Hour menu looked so good that we decided to sit at the bar instead. We ordered the Tuna Tartare, Clams, Pork Ribs, Grilled Eggplant, and Fennel Pickles from the Happy Hour menu, plus the Roasted Olives with extra Sourdough Bread from the main menu. Honestly, every single dish was delicious. The absolute highlights for me were the olives, tuna, pickles, and the sourdough!Here's a quick breakdown of what we had: Sourdough & Herb Butter: Absolute perfection. Crisp on the outside, chewy and moist on the inside. The herb butter was heavenly! Roasted Olives: The ultimate cocktail pairing. Tuna Tartare: The addition of cucumber made it taste so fresh and vibrant. Fennel Pickles: So addicting--I'm still thinking about them! Pork Ribs: Loved the Gochujang (Korean chili paste) sauce, which felt familiar and comforting. The flavor was great, though it had a slight pork aroma that might appeal more to those who enjoy a richer meat flavor. The cocktails were fantastic across the board. Now I completely understand why this place was constantly packed--unbeatable prices, top-tier food quality, and excellent service. Finding great food always sets the mood for a perfect day, and this place definitely made my day!

Type of cuisine: "We never tire of talking to our guests about how we got our quirky name. Inspired by two British drinking terms, Brimmer & Heeltap seeks to celebrate the moments that exist between the first sip of one's libation and the last drops lingering at the bottom of the glass. Since late 2013 we've delighted in creating an environment that is inviting, lively, and comforting. A sense of playfulness is present in everything we do, from the inventive dishes our culinary team prepares, to the friendly, genuine hospitality we provide. We're a bistro that takes pride in being a neighborhood place - the kind you can escape to at day's end for a delicious meal shared among friends." Ambiance: "Located in the former Le Gourmand space in beautiful Ballard, Brimmer & Heeltap offers an intimate, cozy atmosphere complete with an open kitchen, full bar, and multiple sections to drink and dine in. Our garden patio is one of the best-kept secrets in the city, offering a dreamy place to dine outdoors during Seattle's spring and summer months. We also have a tucked-away back studio that offers the perfect setting for special, private gatherings year-round. Just how many pennies does it take to cover a floor? Just ask Brimmer & Heeltap's proprietress Jen who collected tens of thousands of them from family, friends, and the community to help execute the vision of a cool gathering placed dubbed, naturally, the "Penny Room." This dining room, beloved for both its wall of menus and its shining penny floor, is a favorite place to break bread with loved ones, and plays into the restaurant's blend of nostalgic and contemporary design. The restaurant was designed in collaboration with Sean Sifagaloa of KRFTWRK and local builder Mike Marian, owner of Marian Built. Light, texture, metal, wood, and floral elements are all at play here. This historic building possesses a playful, familiar charm that we wanted to preserve in its latest incarnation." What I ordered: Wishing to sample a little of everything, we were served, family style, two orders of Bread ($9 each) - buttered with salt and pepper; Fritto Misto ($12) - assorted, lightly fried and pickled vegetables with tarragon aioli; Smashed Burrata ($19) - snap peas, preserved lemon, mint, basil, sherry reduction; Carrot & Tahini Dip ($16) - caramelized garlic, feta, pistachio, crudite; two orders of Heirloom Tomatoes ($21 each) - melon, chevre, crispy quino, soft herbs; Crispy Potatoes ($16) - whipped feta, hot honey, mint; Mushroom Agnolotti ($34) - roasted maitakes, chanterelles, whipped ricotta, miso butter, thyme; Roast Chicken ($42) - chickpea, berbere yogurt, marinated cucumber, mint gremolata. To finish off our meals, we shared the Olive Oil Cake ($14) - basil yogurt cremeux, strawberry gel, and the Chocolate Tiramisu ($16) - mascarpone, rum, amaretto, candied hazelnuts. What I loved: Oh man, every dish was delightful. I found something to savor and repeat in each of the dishes we were served. From the sweetness of the heirloom tomatoes, to the creamy burrata, from the crispy potatoes, to the fresh peas and everything in between. Our least favorite, at the table was the mushroom Angnolotti, inconsistent from bite to bite. The presentation of the Carrot & Tahini dip was a bit haphazard compared to the rest of the dishes served, but the flavor was still lovely. Why I loved it: The service was unparalleled, comfortable yet professional and quick to offer recommendations for our larger party. The decorations and quaint spaces truly welcoming, and the food, excellent. Cost: High ($40+ per person)
